RIDDLE: Once there was a night watchman who had been caught several times sleeping on the job. The boss issued the final warning. On the next night he was caught with his head on his hand and his elbows on the desk.
"Aha, I've caught you again," exclaimed the boss. The watchman's eyes popped open immediately and he knew what had happened. Being a quick thinking man, he said one word before looking up at the boss. The boss apologized profusely and went home. What was the one word?

  • them pilots are fuckin heroes.

  • SpeedKlz - The crosswind landing is probably the only landing the on board computer CAN'T do, the autopilot/autoland function has no control of the aircraft rudder at anytime. The crosswind landing is all down to skill and training. It's why pilots get paid a lot.

    Think before you post - Dumbass!

  • I was on a plane that had a crosswind landing at Ontario Ca. I had a window seat and wondered why we were landing sideways. I think the passengers were clueless or in shock when we walked off.No one said anything.

  • goood

  • come on. y cant we see the last plane land the whole time it was there?

  • qual que eh o nome dessa musica?

  • otimo!!!

  • because they are getting crosswind they have to return where they get wind from, otherwise they will miss the runway (the centerline)

  • Nothing beats watching planes land to crappy eurotechno.

  • they turn the nose of the plane towards the wind

  • Why are these airplanes flying sideways?

  • yes but the new A340-600 is longer in length than the A380 and i thing the wings span to but not sure about wings =D
